Quick Polka Doodles Christmas Cards

It's my turn setting the challenge over at Polka Doodles this week & I've gone for...

Quick & Easy Christmas Card

I'm a last minute Christmas card maker.  It doesn't matter how hard I try to do them in advance I'm always rushing at the last minute.  So that means I have to make things quick & simple. But I don't want to compromise on style.  So I'm looking for some ideas for mass-producing.  The design team have already given me some ace inspiration.  Check out what they've come up with here. And I can't wait to get hopping around the entries for some more brilliant ideas!

Of course I too had to make my own Design Team entry so that's at least 3 cards done early!  Here's what I made...


The trees & the snowflake come on a sheet of multiple designs on the Sundae of Seasons CD so they're ace for mass-producing & I've simply layered them on to a circle of snowflake paper in various positions...

  
All that was needed then was a bit of bling...


And before I go... Polka Doodles now stock EAST OF INDIA RIBBONS!!!  Check them out here.  I'm not aware of any other craft company stocking them & you can get them by the metre as well as on a reel.  How ace is that!!

These look fabulous Jenny. I really love those trees and my daughter said she liked my tree one best!
Thanks for giving me a much needed kick start to my cards for this year.

I love the tree one best too, but I love them all, I find clean and simple so appealing, but hard to put into practice...you've done it beautifully
big hugs
